    Love the service at the Dock. Mary was our primary server and she was great. the whole team is attentive to all the clients. I have celiac and the chef does a great job making the modifications to the menu as needed. We try to get here at least once a month. It is worth the splurge.

    Our favorite restaurant in Newport Beach!  The atmosphere, the service and the hostess were excellent! From the cocktails to the dessert everything was the best we ever tasted. Being from Florida, anytime we are in the area we return! Can’t wait till the next time!!
